Forgotten Freedom Fighter

By Hemant Padhya

Shayamji established numerous scholarships for the visiting Indian students to enable them to study in Britain. He also established a lectureship in memory of sociologist Dr. Herbert Spencer at the University of Oxford with a starting donation of £1000 which was an enormous amount of money in those days. Shyamaji lived in London between 1896 and 1907 and fought for Indian freedom against British Rule.
